Alternative text:
A plot shows drag cap D on the vertical axis, while velocity cap V is the horizontal axis. The drag curve resembles a parabola, with the right side flattened out slightly. An arbitrary line is drawn from the origin into the drag curve at an angle theta above the horizontal axis. A second line is drawn tangent to the curve at a corresponding angle theta sub min, intersecting the line at the velocity for maximum range, cap V sub max range. The lowest point on the drag curve occurs at cap V sub cap M cap D.
